Pros

At least it's a job. Free parking.

Cons

Poor leadership and management is quite pompous. No place to advance unless you are young, pretty and flirt with mgmt.

Pros

Zirous knows how to keep people happy, and you'll probably get to work with competent people who know what they are doing. WLB is great.

Cons

If you aren't management's favorite, you'll constantly get passed up for every opportunity and will be largely ignored. Mgmt has no direction or strategy whatsoever. You'll likely work on crap codebases with minimal attention to good code practices. Expect to gain little to no marketable skills if you aren't lucky. You're nothing but a billable resource. Developers are disposable. You will be severely underpaid, and won't receive any significant monetary compensation for your extra work. I literally make 5x what I used to at Zirous.

Thank you for the feedback. It is unfortunate to learn that a former employee has these thoughts. Zirous strives to be the best of the best by creating a work environment where advancement opportunities are given to all, maintaining an open door policy by all of management, and truly caring about each person's experience and success in their career. We wish you satisfaction and success in your career. - Team Zirous
